Men Who Pee Sitting Down

Fellas:

Do you pee standing up? You’re a stehpinkeln.

Or do you pee sitting down? Then you’re a sitzpinkler.

MAPSU (Mothers Against Peeing Standing Up) is an organization of “concerned individuals who want to stop peeing standing up, support the victims (those who have to clean up), and prevent unnecessary urine stream fragmentation.”

Urine stream fragmentation? Is this an issue in your household?

The WC Ghost is a voice-alarm that shames German men from standing to pee at the toilet.

"Hey, stand-peeing is not allowed here and will be punished with fines, so if you don't want any trouble, you'd best sit down," one of the devices orders in a voice impersonating (former) Chancellor Gerhard Schroder. Another has a voice similar to that of his predecessor, Helmut Kohl.

So tell us…

Is one method of peeing preferable to another? Is there any advantage in sitting to pee over standing to pee?

If you’ve always done it one way, try it another. Right now! And get back to us with the results.

I didn't fight the japs at the Bulge to be told how to pee. Who sits doon to pee? weemen thats who, who doesn't have massive balls to avoid pissing over? weemen thats who. Put weemen on those pills for bladder infections that turn yer pee red and you'll soon see that men don't just make the messes.

oh lordy.not even my 2 year old grandson sits down to pee. please. what's wrong with germans? aren't they happy unless they're oppressing someone needlessly? no, really. i'm married to one. whats the deal?and if you were a guy wouldn't you risk dabbling your regions in the water? that'd be a shock in the middle of the night.

I usually go before I get up in the morning but on the rare occasion that I get caught short during the day, it's the kitchen sink for me providing Mrs. Waring has done the dishes (I'm not an animal). Failing that, I keep an empty 32 ounce gatorade bottle by the side of my chair. This is the only valid reason for sitting down to pish, being too fuckin lazy to get up.
